Serves 4
Wings:
3 Tbsp Jalapeño Garlic Fused Olive Oil
1 Tbsp cornstarch
2 tsp sea salt
1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1 tsp garlic powder
4 lbs split chicken wings
Sweet & Spicy Sauce:
2 Tbsp Jalapeño Garlic Fused Olive Oil
¼ cup Pineapple White balsamic vinegar
2 Tbsp crushed pineapple
2 Tbsp diced red pepper
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 Tbsp minced fresh parsley
In a large mixing bowl whisk together the Garlic Olive Oil, cornstarch, sea salt, ground black pepper and garlic powder. Mix to combine. Pat the split chicken wings dry with a paper towel and add to the mixing bowl. Toss to coat well.
Pre-heat the grill to 500°F and brush with a little olive oil. Place the wings on the grill and reduce the heat to medium-high, the goal is to hold the grill temperature to between 400°F425°F while cooking. Cook the wings for 20 to 25 minutes, turning every 2 to 3 minutes, so the skin doesn’t stick, and the wings cook evenly. When done the internal temperature will be 170°F.
To make the sauce, add the sauce ingredients except the parsley into a small saucepan and whisk to combine. Bring to a rolling boil, boil for one minute and remove from heat. When the wings are done, add to a large serving bowl, pour the sauce over the wings and toss to combine. Serve immediate with a sprinkle of parsley for garnish.
The sauce will store in the fridge, in an aright container for up to 1 week and can be made ahead, warm in a saucepan before serving. The chicken wings will keep for up to 3 days in an airtight container in the fridge.
